Effect of amino acid supplementation to a low-protein diet on brain neurotransmitters and memory-learning ability of rats.

abstract：:Tempting environmental food cues and metabolic signals are important factors in appetite regulation. Food intake reduces liking of food cues that are congruent to the food eaten (sensory-specific satiety). With this study we aimed to assess effects of sensory-specific satiety on neural processing (perceptual and evalu...
